Re: i need your help not encounter the drivers sata ahci for xp!

Hello and greetings! Thank you for joining the forum.

0) First and foremost. Ensure you have a valid license for XP.1) use latest Chipset & MassStorage, and integrate with DPs_BASE into unmodified XP disc, copied to a folder2) burn a new disc3) At the initial VAIO screen, press the F2 key.4) in your BIOS, set USB 3.0 to legacy (USB 2.0)5) turn off "Secure Boot" (if available)

If that doesn't work, please post your DPs_BASE log.

Note: Intel RST v11.2.0.1006 is utilized for Textmode in MassStorage, Sony supplies v11.0.0.1032 also noting that the Sony Wireless State Device Driver (*SNYA008) is not included for NT5 (it is for 8_64bit)

"Intel RST v11.2.0.1006 is Utilized for Textmode in MassStorage, Sony supplies v11.0.0.1032 Also Noting That the Sony Wireless State Device Driver (* SNYA008) is not included for NT5 (it is for 8_64bit) "being so means that you can not downgrade to xp???

and I hope you continue to help and you do not mind the many questions that you do

thanks for your valuable help and the time you take to help those who do not know about this topic

XP is a dying platform. Microsoft is killing XP life support in a year.If you absolutely must use XP, why not just use XP from within a virtual machine? VirtualBox is a fine free example.Your laptop is only licensed (and supported by Sony) to use Windows 7. To use anything else would be violating either copyright or the terms of use (or both).

Re: i need your help not encounter the drivers sata ahci for xp!

Hi Anna,

The original poster (or OP) of this thread is pretty awesome.

A. He posted in English, not his native language.B. He posted that he had read a tutorial, and linked to the one he used. (you might follow that link)C. He posted some details, the model of the machine and the HWIDs (NICE)He got all the way through using our DriverPacks BASE with DriverPacks, integrating drivers and testing his work.

He failed to mention what OS, Which version of DriverPacks BASE, which DriverPacks versions, (Or his DPs_BASE.log which includes all that). But hey over eighty percent on his first post is rockin along pretty darn good. Remember all our help is in english too, which means he learned all this in a foreign language too.

look at the links in mr_smartypants and my posts for help to get started. try first, then when (if) you get stuck go ahead and ask= but refer to :Read BEFORE you post:

Start your own thread. Don't hijack someone else's.

It will extract on a non intel computer, it won't install. A search of our forum will yield the answer to that problem.

the OEM (Original manufacturer) should offer the f6 driver that you seek all by itself .unless your OS is not supported by them for that MB.

Re: i need your help not encounter the drivers sata ahci for xp!

If your HW is new enough to not support XP then win7 is a solid platform and your machine should have enough power / resources to make it snappy.

Pant's is right about the license.

You do have "downgrade rights" and can substitute XP,

BUT there are rules about which versions of windows have downgrade rights (home versions do not have downgrade rights for example). if you want to downgrade from win7 home you first have to upgrade to win7 pro or better. Otherwise you are in violation of MS EULA.
